This is the machete that Sheriff Ric Bradshaw says Daniel Rhodes used to charge at one of his deputies.

The suspect in Friday night's deputy-involved shooting was identified as Daniel Rhodes.

Palm Beach County Sheriff's Office deputies said Rhodes' wife and daughter called 911 saying he was threatening to kill them.

Bradshaw relayed to reporters at the scene what Rhodes' wife told deputies.

"He has punched her a couple of times and basically told her that if the police are summoned he is going to kill her, chop her up in little pieces and the police are going to have to kill him," Bradshaw said.

When the first deputy arrived at the home on Gun Club Road, he encountered Rhodes "just inside the doorway that leads to the garage," Bradshaw said.

The deputy ordered Rhodes to drop the machete, but Rhodes turned and charged at the deputy with the machete, so the deputy shot Rhodes in self-defense, Bradshaw said.
